Next on Hunter.

Police! Drop the gun!

The boy's in there, Danny Sanderson.

Consider him a witness as well as maybe
a target. It's too close to call.

He's in a coma. That boy goes to bed
last night in his own house, and a few

hours later he's a heartbeat away from
becoming an orphan. Danny is not truly

going to be free until we catch the
killer. We're wasting an awful lot of

here. You must have seen him. What did
he look like? He was big.

All right, if it's dark, I couldn't see
his face. You happy?

Can I borrow a quarter?

The guy calls twice during dinner. Give
it a rest. I want to know the instant

she goes into labor. You will, Jimmy.
She's going to be fine.

Having babies is just a natural...
Rhythm of life. Exactly.

Don't you know that there are still
places in the world where women have

and then right after that they go out
and herd cattle and stuff? Oh, because

they're prepared.

They don't use drugs.

They're in tune with all the elements of
the birthing process.

That's why we're having our baby
underwater.

What?

You do know underwater is considered the
method of choice. So where are you

going to hammer, the jacuzzi?

Oh, in a natal immersion tank with
sterile warm saline solution like

fluid. Less stress on the child, mom,
and dad.

When the time comes, all I need is ease.

One out of 43 in all units in the
vicinity of 847 Montemar. I'll meet you

This is 1 William 56. Show me a tootsie.
Adam 43 in the pocket. Stop the fire.

We heard screams, and three

or four minutes later, a loud bang.

Did you see anybody come in or out of
the front of the house?

No cars?

Okay. Thanks very much, folks. If you go
back to your homes, we'll have a police

officer join you later for a statement.

Thanks a lot.

Vince, I'm going up the side of the
house.

Be ready with the shotgun.

Police! Drop the gun!

Give me the gun. Come on. Let go.

Mr. Mugger?

You will underhand that.

I don't want you to move her.

McCall, get an ambulance.

Have Costello bring a blanket. And
quick.

Now, what is your name?

Danny Anderson.

Whose gun is it?

My dad's. Where'd you get it?

In the study.

Where's your study?

It's right there.

Check upstairs.

Okay, let's keep him warm, Danny. Come
on.

The kid took a shot at the killer.

Is it in there, Jimmy?

Yeah, it's in here.

Digging it out. Good. Thanks.

Henry, when you finish with the
telephone, get in here.

Just this desk lamp.

A suspect may have moved it.

I'll be through in about five.

Boyd, been there watching television?

I don't think he's seen much.

Before that, he just sat and stared at
the walls.

Hardly spoken at all.

How you doing, Charlie?

Okay, the deceased's name is Richard
Sanderson. Shot point blank in the heart

with a small caliber handgun. Looks to
be a .22.

What about the wife?

Found her over here, shot in the back of
the head.

Looks like it was the same murder
weapon. We haven't found it yet. You can

none of the neighbors heard that .22 go
off. No, but witnesses say they heard a

scream and the boy's 38.

The boy's in there, Danny Sanderson.

The only child.

They found Danny standing here over his
mother with the .38 that he says he

found in his father's office.

On the blood, it looks like the intruder
was hit.

There's a blood trail in the foyer hall,
not in the backyard.

On the patio, my guess is that it was a
through and through.

Slug went out that window. I'll give you
a blood type in the morning. Look,

thanks, Jim. Okay.

I think our killer was interrupted
before he completed his search.

Johnny, here's what we need you to do.
Go outside, look at that .38.

If it's not out there, it's probably
down in Van Nuys Boulevard somewhere.

guys, we're looking for a .38 slug.
Whoever tore it up is looking for

very specific.

Hi, McCollum.

Devane?

You're Sergeant Hunter, right? You're
Lieutenant Curry.

Hi, how are you? My captain called me to
handle this directly.

Good. I think Danny's going to need
immediate protective custody. I think we

should probably consider him a witness
as well as maybe a target.

Hi, Danny. How are you doing?

I'm Lieutenant Curry.

Call me Liana.

I'm a psychologist with the juvenile
division.

I know something terrible happened here
tonight. I'm going to help you.

My dad's dead.

I'm on to it.

I'm sorry.

I'll check with the hospital and make
sure she gets the best care possible.

Now, I'd like to take you someplace to
spend the night.

I have my own room.

Well, I'm going to take you to a place
where you'll be safe.

Listen, we're going to need to interview
him as soon as possible. Yeah, check

with me in the morning.

Why don't we go upstairs and pack up
some things that you like?

The bullet didn't damage any critical
areas of Kathy's brain.

There's a subdural hematoma causing a
severe amount of swelling, and she's

experiencing periodic seizures.

Is she going to live?

It's too close to call.

I'll let you know if your condition
changes. Thank you.

Does Danny know?

Not the specifics, just that his
mother's condition is serious.

I feel so sorry for him.

Maybe I should take him back to Denver
with me.

Well, I don't think that the juvenile
court will release a child without a

hearing first.

Besides, he might need some protection.

You see, the assailant might think that
Danny could identify him.

You know, Claire, you might be able to
help us out here.

Do you know of anybody who might want to
harm them?

Not that I'm aware of.

Did they have a happy marriage?

I don't know.

I guess Danny was a strain.

How is that?

Kathy and Richard were older.

Danny was a surprise child.

Perhaps they never expected they'd be
parents.

Danny is a reticent boy.

Shy. Very sweet.

A little socially behind the others his
age.

Two years now, they've shipped him off
to me for the summer.

They thought the travel would get him
started.

Of course.

I'll take him if Kath... I... I'm sorry.

What a world, huh?

That boy got to bed last night in his
own house, in his own family. The

problem is probably a book report he's
got due today, and a few hours later,

he's a heartbeat away from becoming an
orphan.

So what are you doing about it?

Well, a suspect entered through the
double doors, shot both victims with a

caliber handgun. That's all we got.

I sent two morning watch cars out to
check the neighborhood for the gun.

Yeah, if our suspect got shot in the
upper body with a .38, he's gonna need a

doctor fast.

You know, something's bothering me.

If the killer didn't take any money or
jewelry, what was he looking for?

By the way the place was tossed around,
I would say he was looking for something

quite specific, perhaps a paperwork of
some sort.

Maybe it had something to do with
business.

Sanderson was a founder in a big
accounting firm. You know, handled

sports stars, corporate leaders, that
kind of thing.

That's a start. Check it out.

Okay.

All right, what do you say I go down to
the shelter and see if Danny can be

interviewed?

You want to take a drive to Century
City? Why don't you take the drive, and

go see Danny.

Lieutenant, how are you doing?

Fine, how are you?

Your timing's good. Danny and I were
about ready to take a break.

Terrific. How are you doing, Danny?

Okay.

What do you got, a tyrannosaurus record?

No, a tenguosaurus.

Well,

I think that the tail is upside down.

Right.

Yeah, there you go. Would you like to
have a seat?

Please. Yeah, thank you.

Danny, this may not be the time, but I
need you to tell me everything you can

about what happened last night.

Sergeant Hunter.

Okay, do you have any idea what the
intruder was looking for?

Danny, nothing is going to happen to
you. I promise you that.

You know, the paleontologists tell us
that we were all very lucky that these

things never grew.

I think he likes you.

Right. No, seriously.

He sees you as a protector figure.

That's very important.

His world's gone completely to pieces.

His two parents and anchors are gone, or
very nearly.

He needs someone he can trust right now.
I told him that's an okay feeling.

If you get close to him, he may open up
to you. That's my plan, but how long do

you think that's gonna take?

Who knows?

Deep down in his subconscious, he knows
exactly what happened.

But if defense mechanisms are inadequate
to protect him from the pain... Listen,

I understand that, but I gotta catch a
killer. Well, the point is, he's

exhibiting denial.

Have you got kids?

No, I don't.

A boy his age, if you press him...

He could freeze up and it would only
take that much longer. We've got to

Help him relax and let him respond at
his own rate.

I believe so.

Thanks. I'll be back.

Okay.

I've spent the better part of today
wondering if Dick's death was connected

the business.

No bells.

Well, Mr. Liggett, maybe he was involved
in something that you're not aware of.

We've been partners for 20 years.

I know all of Dick's clients.

Wouldn't mind seeing a list of those
clients, if I may.

It's coming.

That's Sergeant McCall, Harry Crandall.

Harry's taking over Dick's clients,
sorting through, making short -term

appraisals.

Anything Sergeant McCall wants, and I
mean anything, you give her, no

asked. It's a list of our clients, great
and small.

Thanks.

It will remain confidential.

I'll be in touch, gentlemen. Thank you.

William 57, go.

Alvarado Free Clinic reported a gunshot
victim en route.

William 57, roger. Cross your fingers,
I'm en route.

Before you give another scrap of paper
to that cop, you run it by me first.

This guy sure isn't worried about blood
poisoning.

Think he went to another clinic?

I think it's a great possibility he
could be an Ohio guy.

Watch him.

How'd you get shot?

He said he pulled a gun during an
argument in a bar,

but the man had one too and shot him.

He said his gun isn't even loaded. He's
a watchman.

Security guard, huh? Take him in. Let's
check him out.

Right on schedule.

No problem. I've got everything under
control, darling, okay?

Take it easy.

All right, leave it up to me.

Thank you.

14 out of 14.

14 out of 14 what?

Babies. Now that we're getting close,
I'm having a couple every day to stay in

shape.

Well, Jimmy, it works because your body
looks great.

Thanks. Have you done the blood work on
the Sanderson case yet?

Yeah.

The trail of blood was type O, same as
the disease.

Now you tell me it was Sanderson's
blood?

I didn't say that.

Type O is very common among Western
European gene stock.

The blood on the floor had a V antigen.

Only half a percent of that group has a
V.

Sanderson didn't.

You still got a wounded killer out
there, okay?

Raiders, bears, Danny.

Big game.

I would have loved you to take me to the
game, but I sure know how the doctors

feel about that type of thing.

So? If you can't go to the game, I will
definitely bring the game to you.

Why don't you make some popcorn? I'll
turn this thing on.

He gets it away and hits it well and
drives it down to Ellard backing up.

Hey.

Oh, Ryan.

How about a little cards?

I gave him a Rorschach and a thematic
apperception test.

He's going through a lot of depression.

What kind of a boy is that?

I called at school.

His teachers say he's very bright, very
interested in science, but that he's not

motivated in his other classes.

He's a daydreamer, distant, doesn't go
out of his way to make friends with the

other kids. Sounds like a regular
teenager to me.

Yeah, I'm not saying he's very unusual.

Every day in here, I see 13 -year -olds
who would go to school packing guns if

they could, and some do.

Danny's not like that.

Well,

maybe if he saw his mother, that might
open him up a little bit.

Maybe, but it could also reverse any
progress that we've made.

Yeah.

I do owe you one.

Why? Because you never showed up to help
me? Uh -huh.

I thought you meant something unusual.

So where were you?

I went by the shelter to see Danny.

Really? Did you get a call from the
shelter?

No. I just figured he might be ready to
talk.

Was he? No.

Lieutenant Curry said that he was in
denial.

What do you got?

I stayed at the shelter because I
thought maybe Danny might need me, okay?

Well, I spent the whole night going
through the Sanderson bank file. And

I completely flunked Checkbook 101, it
looks like a Sanderson's got $5 ,000

every month for the past two years.

Oh, embezzlement, blackmail situation,
maybe? And I have a feeling I know where

his little money tree grows.

The telephone toll shows that Sanderson
regularly called a man whose name is

Rockne Waters. You've heard him.

Big -time sports agent. Handled some
Lakers, a few Raiders, Dodgers. Yeah,

right. Well, Waters was not one of
Sanderson's clients. But Sanderson

called Waters on his private line one or
two days right after that.

Sanderson was given $5 ,000 to his
broker.

Sounds like you're picking kind of bare
bones.

Just a second, Joy. Go ahead. Well,
Sanderson never dialed Waters from his

office. But he did dial him once and
only once from the house where we found

body. When was that?

Four hours before he died.

Hey, don't worry about it. The Dodgers
are going to pick up his option.

Hold on a second. There's a guy here
invading my space.

Hey, pal, do you mind?

Guess what? He's a cop.

Big, too.

Six -five, six -six.

Make a good utility forward.

I'll talk to you later.

Hey,

Mr. Rockingwaters?

Sergeant Hunter, LA Homicide. How you
doing?

All right.

What can I do for you?

Mr.

Waters, a few hours before Richard
Sanderson was murdered, he placed a

call to you.

I'd like to know what that phone call
was about.

I figured I'd get this visit now that
Richard's dead. Look, Sergeant, what I

know about Richard Sanderson isn't worth
arresting anyone for.

Why don't you get a second opinion on
that?

Okay.

You'll find out anyway. I'd rather you
found out from me.

About two and a half years ago, I was
facing an IRS audit.

I needed my book sanitized.

I chose Sanderson and Liggett because
they were above reproach, but they

me.

All right, I admit it.

Sanderson was blackmailing me. Hey,
what's 5 ,000 a month? I mean, I was

at it like it was insurance money.

Certainly not worth killing somebody.

Besides, I'd already told him the faucet
was closed.

Sanderson called me the night he died to
say he would give back his copies of my

accounts. No hard feelings, C .C.
Sargent.

I'm really very upset that he checked
out prematurely.

I still don't have my documents.

Excuse me.

Yeah, you. Can I see you for just a
second?

How'd you hit your arm?

It's a pick -up game with those guys.

What's your blood type?

Red.

I'm a bodyguard.

You know, I may want the police position
to take a look at that arm.

In the near future.

Red. You're funny.

Liggett gets hold of those papers.

He's going to be holding me up for a
hell of a lot more than five G's a

Get him back.

I don't need heat like that on my tail.

Hi.

How you doing?

Silver?

Sergeant Hire. I'm Sergeant McCall's
partner.

How do you do?

Hi, Danny.

Hi.

I'm so sorry about your daddy.

But we know your mommy's got a good
chance.

But for now... I thought it'd be bad.

That is, I... I talked to a lawyer about
taking temporary custody of you.

I don't want to.

Why do I have to?

I could go home.

Please. Danny, you only have to do what
you think best.

There's no hurry, no pressure.

Anyway, we're here so that Danny can
visit his mother and see how she's

I'll be right with you.

It's okay.

I'm still not really in favor of this.

Leanna, I understand that.

Her life support care is pretty grim.

I'm not backing out. I'm just going on
record.

I know you're not. I appreciate it.

It's worth a shot, isn't it?

Want to say something to your mother,
Danny?

Mom?

Mom?

Danny?

Look, Danny.

You're not going to be able to go home
again until we catch this guy. You

understand that? Now, you've got to give
me something to work on.

You must have seen him. What did he look
like? He was big.

All right, if it's dark, I couldn't see
his face. Are you happy?

Sorry.

I just wish I could get with that dick.

It brings up a lot of stuff sometimes,
doesn't it?

I was 20 years of age when my dad died.

Doesn't it?

The kid's under constant guard. I can't
get to him.

We've got to find those papers any way
we can.

I feel the wallpaper in Sanderson's
office.

We can't find them there. We know
they're in the house.

Boy, I'll tell you what, this Sanderson
must have been a real fun guy, this box

full of stuff on double -entry
bookkeeping and multi -scheduled

whatever that is.

Hello?

McCall. Sergeant McCall, this is Harry
Crandall.

Can you come over to the office right
away?

I think I found the tip of that iceberg
you've been looking for.

Anybody here?

Surprisingly, it looks like a heart
attack. No marks, no sign of violence.

You know, somebody's making it very
difficult for you people to field a

team here, Mr. Liggett. You sure you
don't want to tell me anything?

Like what?

Like you killed your partner.

You know, your employees say you got
into a big fight right before you got a

bullet in the head. Over business. The
fight was over business.

Look, I swear, if Dick kept papers on
Waters, I never knew about them, and I

sure as hell wouldn't kill him over it.
Can you take it here for a minute? Of

course. Thank you very much.

What the hell is wrong with you people?
How many times am I going to have to

explain myself?

Leanne, I only want the boy for a day.

It could be too much.

I talked to the neurosurgeon. He said
his mother's going to die. I had a long

talk with Claire today.

She doesn't want him. Why add to his
problem? Look, Danny is not truly going

be free until we catch the killer. We're
wasting an awful lot of time here.

Push him now.

You could put him even deeper into
depression.

Look, would you rather depress him or
get him killed?

I think we should look upon this as a
field trip, Patty. Yeah.

I don't want to.

I'm busy today.

It'd be good for you to spend some time
outdoors.

Yeah, we'll get some bicycles, maybe
shoot some baskets.

I don't do any of that stuff.

Air and Space Museum at the Exposition
Park. That's a great idea.

Okay, just for a little while. Yeah,
fine.

Jet, the T -38 trainer with the red
airplane here, this is P -51.

That's a real classic, Danny. A little
before your time.

Power doesn't mean much to you, though.

P -51, Rolls -Royce, V -1650 Merlin
engine.

Top airspeed, 445 miles per hour.

Best Allied fighter of World War II.

Mean anything to you?

It does sound like a psychologist's
question, doesn't it? Yeah.

They're all, mean anything to you?

How does it make you feel?

That's all they ever say.

Well, that's a legitimate question
considering what you've been through,

you think?

Yeah.

You know, another fair question, Danny,
might be what that guy was doing there

in the first place.

We can tell an awful lot by the way
somebody searches her home.

So what's this doing?

I woke up.

I guess it was the first shot.

And I heard my mom scream from
downstairs.

I ran to my parents' room, but they
weren't there.

And then I heard my mom scream again.

And another shot.

I came downstairs to see.

I remember being in my dad's study,
getting his gun out of his desk

drawer.

And I was studying by mom, and that guy
came around the corner.

And I shot him.

What do you think you wanted?

My dad kept papers.

He said they were like an insurance
policy, so nobody could hurt us.

If anything happened to him or Mom, I
was supposed to give them to the police.

Yeah.

I know where he hid them.

It was my idea.

Where'd you see where I hid these?

Danny, wait a minute. Danny!

Come on, down this way.

Down here in the cellar.

Watch out for those beds.

This is so perfect.

Wait till you see this place. I figure
nobody ever seems to look.

My dad told me that we had to put them
in a place where they would be

safe.

What do you think?

Get out of my way, kid.

Lock your fingers behind your head.

Face against the wall.

Come on.

Put them up.

All right.

Turn around.

Give me a peek at that bullet hole.

I told you it's a bruise.

Right hand behind your back.

Surprise, detective.

I didn't do it.

This proves it wasn't me. All it proves
is you weren't shot, Brooks.

But you could have been there. I don't
believe this.

You could have also had an accomplice.

You're striking out, man. You could have
also hired a hitman. I don't hire

people. I work for Waters.

I don't know what the hell he did.
Waters could have hired someone and not

you. Then why don't you ask him? All I
did was trash that house and turn your

lights out. I never killed anybody.

What do you see, huh?

Man, are these things necessary?

I told you, before it was peanuts I was
paying him. It didn't mean anything to

me. You were scamming your athletes out
of a total of about $11 million, and

Sanderson had the paperwork to prove it.
I didn't kill him. Uh -huh. Then you

sent Brooks over to Sanderson's house to
look for those papers. Then he went to

Liggett's office.

That night, poor Harry Crandall died of
a heart attack. I'm not responsible for

what my employees do when they're off
time. Uh -huh.

You know, I think the district attorney
will file a second -degree murder case

in the Crandall death.

I want to talk to my lawyer.

I think you should.

I'm going to sue you for false arrest.

Why would I want to kill my own partner?

Could be he was blackmailing you, too. I
want my phone call. I want my trigger,

man.

Sit down real quick.

You two know each other, don't you?

Hunter.

Yes.

Fantastic. Thanks very much.

Book this fellow on a conspiracy to 187.
I'm going to the hospital. Mrs.

Sanderson just got out of a coma.

That's great!

Just like old home week, huh, boys?

Leanna.

Hi. Hi. How's Danny doing?

I don't know.

Well, didn't you tell him his mom's over
here? Yeah, I told him.

Hi,

Danny.

Want to go see your mom?

Mom?

It's me.

Danny.

Oh, thank God.

You were in your room.

She's really weak. I think that's
enough.

Please.

Sergeant Hunter?

Miss Anderson. Sergeant Hunter. Just a
second. Miss Anderson, you said

about Danny not being in his room. What
do you mean?

Sergeant.

He screamed and I went to look for him

down the stairs.

And then I...

Danny?

I think it's time we had a little talk.
Look, Hunter, this isn't the time. No,

this is the perfect time.

You didn't seem so happy to see your
mother.

Aren't you excited she's going to live?

Your mother said you weren't in your
room when she heard you scream.

That's because you were already
downstairs.

You had been there for some time,
tearing your father's office apart to

look like there was a prowler in the
house.

Your father sent your mother into your
room to look for you.

You knew your father would be the first
one downstairs.

And when he got down there, you shot
him.

Your mother heard the gunshot.

She was hysterical when she ran
downstairs.

And when she got there, you shot her,
too.

Didn't you?

Where'd you get the gun, Danny?

School.

You can get anything at school.

What'd you do with it?

The air conditioning went living.

And the blood? Where'd you get the
blood?

From a doctor's office.

I was having a physical and I stole
somebody else's tube.

I just flashed him out the window and I
flashed the rest.

Then you made the phone call to the
clinic about the gunshot wound.

What about your father's papers?

I was going to show you earlier.

But you were doing fine without me.

My God, why did you shoot him?

They were going to send me to live with
Claire.

They didn't love me.

He never talked to me or nothing.

Neither did she.

What do I need them for?

916, 7 pounds, 4 ounces.

Hey, Bob, right on time. Last night,
916, 7 pounds, 4 ounces.

Here, Hunter.

Right on time. Last night, 916, 7
pounds, 4 ounces.

He's beautiful. Yeah, thanks.

Sugarless cigar?

Sugarless cigar.

Thanks, Jimmy. Yeah. Congratulations.

Thanks a lot.

Missed you at the hearing? I was busy.

Danny's got really good counsel.

He's gonna need it.

The whole thing will probably wind up an
insanity plea, but the D .A. wants to

try Danny as an adult anyway.

First -degree murder.

You know, I'm not buying the I'm -too
-tough -to -care bit here.

Just for the record, I think the man
that reached out to that kid did a

wonderful thing.

And just because that man got his hand
bit, it does not diminish the reason he

did it or the man.

And I'd be willing to listen if he just
wanted to get that off his chest.

I feel like a really bad cup of coffee.

Who has the worst coffee around here?

Well, we all know that the cafe has the
worst of everything, don't we?

Yeah, the worst.

I'm buying.

He's the lowest pop's dad, kid.

Who wants the coffee?
